My PSU Died
I have a OCZ GameXStream 850W PSU and when I shut down the PC B-4 I went to bed last it was fine. I got up this morning, pressed the power button, the lights came on and went right back off I was like WTF so I reached around back and switched it off and went to fix the coffee pot and when I got back I turned it back on and got nothing so I unplugged everything and got 3 known good fans and tried to jump start it just in case something maybe wrong with something in my pc but I still got nothing. This is PSU #2 that I've killed with this PC
I've contacted "Steve" with OCZ and I'm waiting for a reply.

Re: My PSU Died
Here is one more that I'm considering the only thing is I'd have to run a 240v receptacle for it but I don't mind.
Toughpower 1500W - W0171
